ambar (Jean Marie Diaz):
From this week's News of the Wierd:
In December, a California Court of Appeals Judge Arthur J. Scotland,
deciding that the scrotum is legally a "sexual organ," explaned his
decision by writing, "As a matter of common sense, a penis without the
testes and scrotum is like a flintlock rifle without a flint and
flashpowder, or a bow without a string and arrow." In a dissenting
opinion, Judge Frances Newell Carr wrote that the only male sexual organ
is the penis.

celine (Rob F):
The Lesson, Part IV
A: Is it through the divine I can make my circles smaller?
M: The path run by the religious is larger than the whole world. Their
circle is the largest of all.
A: Can I reduce them by by studying the ways of those who have stopped?
M: If you can identify them, you can use them as reference points from
which to gauge changes in your own path. Thus they can be a guide
to you. But recognizing them is difficult, for many claim to be
such persons.

tater (Mark A Enstrom):
I plan to do great things with my life.
Unfortunately I need to get out of this
place before I will be able to do that.
You never know, I might have done great
things already and just don't know it.
That's just one of those things that
makes you go...
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.....

therese (Therese):
At the still point of destruction
At the centre of the fury
All the angels all the devils
All around us can't you see
There is a deeper wave than this
Rising in the land
There is a deeper wave than this
Nothing will withstand...

Dream of the Blue Turtles

yandros (Chad Phillip Brown):
Ozymandias
I met a traveller from an antique land
Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on those lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed;
And on the pedestal these words appear:
"My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.
-Percy Bysshe Shelley-
